Searching by ISBN is the fastest, most accurate way to find your textbook. The ISBN may be 10 or 13 digits. You can obtain the ISBN from your instructor or syllabus.

Access codes should ONLY be ordered by ISBN since titles may be similar.

When searching by keyword:

Use single words; complex phrases can limit your results.

Remove punctuation like quotation marks or apostrophes.

Search by author's last name only; if there is more than one author, try using only the first author's last name.

eTextbook FAQs

What are eTextbooks?

eTextbooks are digital versions of textbooks that enhance your learning experience with personally tailored study tools and advanced tech features such as highlighting, note-taking, quick search, and more. When you buy an eTextbook, depending on the format type, you can access it from or download it to your computer or laptop, or access it from a tablet, mobile phone, or other compatible reading device.

Why choose eTextbooks over physical textbooks?

Some of the reasons that students choose eTextbooks include:

Instant access - download or access online right away

Less weight to lug around - your shoulders will thank you

Enhanced features - built-in highlighting, note-taking, search, and more

Reduced price - up to 60% less than new print books

Environmental sustainability - eTextbooks don't consume paper

What reader software do I need to access or read my eTextbook?

The reader software you need depends on the format of the eTextbook you purchased. Before purchasing, go to the product page and view the reader information under the eTextbooks tab. Also, after your order is processed, we'll email you instructions on how to download your free reader software.

How do I access my eTextbook?

For a set number of days from the registration

Before purchasing an eTextbook, you can go to the product page and click on "View Digital Rights." For eTextbooks you have already purchased, log into your account and click on your Digital Bookshelf to view the digital rights.

What is Digital Rights Management (DRM)?

Digital Rights Management (DRM) is a set of restrictions determined by the publisher. DRM defines limitations, for example, on how much text you can copy, how many pages you can print, how many highlights you can export, and how many times you can download a book. The terms of your book license are also defined by the DRM.

The DRM information, which includes license and expiration information, can be viewed on the product page or in your Digital Bookshelf under "View Digital Rights."

When a license expires, will my notes be retained? Can I access them after expiration?

Yes. But printing rules vary by publisher. Before purchasing an eTextbook, you can find out more information by going to the product page, clicking on "View Digital Rights," and look for "Printing" details. For eTextbooks you have already purchased, log into your account and click on your Digital Bookshelf to view the digital rights.

Can I share my eTextbook with my classmates?

No. eTextbooks are designed as a one-time download/limited-term access for a single user or laptop/mobile device. There are Encoded Digital Rights Management rules in place that disallow sharing eTextbooks. You can view limits by going to the product page and clicking on "View Digital Rights."

Can I make a back-up copy of my eTextbook, in case my computer crashes?

With the exception of Adobe eTextbooks, your eBook is stored online to prevent loss of data. For Adobe eTextbooks, you may store back-ups on removable media (CD or DVD) or copy it to an external drive. In the event of a computer crash, you may reinstall your eTextbook on the same computer from which it was originally accessed.

Collection and use of information

Why We Collect Personal Information

We collect Personal Information and other information from you, and about you:

to provide you with products and information that you request;

to send you news and information about our company, products and services;

to contact you, if necessary;

to diagnose problems with our computer systems and administer our website; and

to enhance your online experience, as described in greater detail below.

How We Collect Information

Your submissions. We collect Personal Information that you provide to us when you register for an account, Promotion (defined below) or other program on our website; place or commence an order; or e-mail us.

Automatic collection. We automatically receive certain types of information whenever you interact with Us through Our Website. For example when you visit the Website, our systems, or those of our service providers, may automatically recognize your IP address, domain name and general location, a unique identifier for your Internet-enabled device, date and time of visits, the type of browser you use, the website from which your visit originated, the website you visit after leaving our website, page visits, time spent on web pages, the advertisements clicked on or scrolled over and other data. Below we describe certain information collected, and the actions and technologies that facilitate the collection of such information, in greater detail.

IP address. Your "IP Address" is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider whenever you are on the Internet. When you view pages of our website, our servers may record or "log" your IP Address and sometimes your domain name and general location.

Device IDs. You may be visiting our website from your mobile device like a mobile phone or tablet. Certain mobile service providers uniquely identify mobile devices, and we or our third-party service providers may receive such information if you access our website through mobile devices. Some features of the website may allow for the collection of mobile phone numbers, and we may associate that phone number to mobile device identification information.

E-mail. If you receive e-mail from us, we may use certain tools to capture data, including when you open our message, click on any links or banners it contains and/or make purchases. Certain e-mail messages may also contain tracking pixels or similar technologies, which collect and provide us with information while you are on our website.

Cookies. Our website uses "cookies" to customize your shopping experience or to keep track of your shopping cart. Cookies make web surfing easier for you by saving your customer identification information (i.e., username, password, shopping cart information, user preferences, etc.) while you are at our website. Cookies also track where you travel on our website and what you look at and purchase, and where you go after you leave our website. When you visit our website again, the cookie allows the website to recognize your browser and customize your experience. You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some website features or services may not function properly without cookies.

Clear GIFs/tracking pixels. A clear GIF or tracking pixel is typically a one-pixel, transparent image (although it may be visible) located on a web page or in an e-mail or other type of message, which is retrieved from a remote site on the Internet enabling the verification of a person's viewing or receipt of a web page or message.

City Level Geolocation Data. We also use your IP address to determine what city you our visiting our Website from. We do not determine your street address or precise longitudinal or latitudinal coordinates.

We may use the information described above:

to operate the website and to provide general statistics regarding the use of the website, including behavior or demographic information;

to analyze and develop our business strategy;

to determine how you found out about us,

to determine your interests regarding our products and services;

to personalize content and recommendations for you and other;

to target marketing for you and others; and

to improve our website and the user experience.

To accomplish all this, and also to allow us to offer our customers streamlined ordering and other useful features, we use and allow our third-party advertising companies, software vendors, fulfillment companies, and contractors to use the technologies listed above and other similar technologies ("Tracking Technologies").

WE HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY TRACKING, DATA COLLECTION OR OTHER ACTIVITIES OF THIRD PARTIES.

In some cases, we may link information that is not Personal Information and which was automatically collected through Tracking Technologies with Personal Information.

Information from other sources. We may obtain information about you from outside sources and combine it with your account information. For example, we may purchase demographic and other marketing information from third parties to help us better serve you or inform you about products or services that we think will be of interest to you. We sometimes receive updated delivery and address information from our shippers or other sources so that we can correct our records and deliver your next purchase or communication more easily. Finally, we may also purchase lists containing your Personal Information (e.g., address, phone number, e-mail address) for advertising and marketing purposes.

Your ability to opt out from receiving certain communications from Textbooks.com

At any time, you may choose to opt out from receiving certain marketing communications (e-mail or text messages) from us. You can opt out of receiving marketing e-mails by clicking on an "opt-out" link provided at the bottom of a marketing e-mail that you receive from us, or by calling our Customer Service Department at 877-292-6442. To opt-out of text messages (marketing and transactional), follow the instructions provided in text messages from us to text the word, "STOP". Your request will be handled promptly, although you may still receive marketing e-mails or text message communications that were already in process prior to receipt of your request. Additionally, even if you opt out of marketing communications, we may continue to send you communications relating to your orders, technical matters related to the website, and the Terms of Use or this Privacy Policy.

Textbooks.com's ability to share your Personal Information

Generally. We do not rent, sell or share Personal Information about you with other people or companies except in the situations described below.

Sharing your information with our contractors. From time to time we may share Personal Information with contractors that provide us with services. We may share information provided by you directly or through Tracking Technologies with contractors that provide support services to us such as our e-commerce software vendor, fulfillment companies, transaction processor, printer, mailing house, or web host or with companies that help us market, distribute, or sell our products and services. We also may share information provided by you to contractors that conduct research and analysis concerning the people who request information from us. We also may share your Personal Information with contractors that provide a service directly to you through our website. These contractors may need information about you in order to perform their functions.

HOWEVER, A CONTRACTOR PROVIDING A SERVICE DIRECTLY TO YOU THROUGH OUR WEBSITE MAY COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION AND OTHER INFORMATION DIRECTLY FROM YOU. SUCH CONTRACTOR MAY HAVE ITS OWN TERMS OF SERVICE AND PRIVACY POLICY, AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF SUCH CONTRACTOR.

Sharing your information with advertisers. We may participate in behavioral-based advertising. This means that we or a third party may use Tracking Technologies to collect information about your use of our website or other internet usage so that they can provide advertising about products and services tailored to your interest. That advertising may appear either on our website, or on other websites. We also may share traffic and transaction information with business partners and advertisers on an aggregate and anonymous basis.

We currently use Google and Adobe for analytics, marketing, and advertising network services. These services provide us with aggregated information about our visitors. If you would like to opt-out of behavioral-based advertising, or analytics through these services you may opt-out by following the instructions at the following sites:

Sharing your information with publishers. In some instances, we may share your Personal Information with the publisher, copyright holder, or author of the products you purchase from us. These parties may use your information to send you updates, corrections or other information related to those materials.

Sharing your information with educational institutions. We may share your Personal Information with any educational institutions to which you indicate that you belong and with which we have a contractual relationship. The educational institution may use your Personal Information to verify that you have obtained books and other course materials required for a particular course. The educational institution may also use your Personal Information to verify that Textbooks.com is in compliance with any agreements between Textbooks.com and the educational institution.

Share links. We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our website. The website also may contain links to other websites that are not under our control. These links may include the use of so-called "share links." A "share link" is a button and/or text link appearing on our website that enables the launch of a sharing mechanism whereby you can post links to, and content from, the website onto social networking websites such as Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest. The privacy policies of other website operators or advertisers may significantly differ from our Privacy Policy. We urge you to read the privacy statements of each and every website you visit and to contact the third-party website operators or advertisers directly if you have any questions or concerns about their data collection or privacy policies.

WE HAVE NO CONTROL OR INFLUENCE OVER THE PRIVACY PRACTICES OF SUCH OTHER WEBSITES AND ADVERTISERS AND WE DO NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY THIRD-PARTY WEBSITE OPERATORS' OR ADVERTISERS' DATA COLLECTION PRACTICES, THEIR FAILURE TO ABIDE BY THEIR PRIVACY POLICIES OR THE CONTENT OF ANY THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES.

Sharing your information with law enforcement. We fully cooperate with reasonable requests for information from law enforcement agencies. As a result, we reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we reasonably believe to be unlawful, or that we reasonably believe may aid a law enforcement investigation into unlawful activity. In addition, we reserve the right to release your Personal Information to law enforcement agencies if we determine, in our sole judgment, that either you have violated our policies, or the release of your information may protect the rights, property or safety of Textbooks.com, you or one of our other customers.

Sharing your information as permitted by law. We may disclose Personal Information when we believe disclosure is appropriate to comply with the law or protect the rights, property or safety of ourselves or others; when it is necessary to identify or contact you in connection with, bring, or defend legal action against persons or entities that we believe may be causing harm to you, our company or third parties; and, when necessary, to protect or defend our rights or property.

Sharing with affiliates and successors. We may share Personal Information with our parent, subsidiary and sister companies (collectively, "Affiliates"), and they may use such information to market to you, so long as those Affiliates comply with this Privacy Policy. We may also disclose your Personal Information to any actual or potential successor-in-interest of ours, such as a company that is seeking to acquire us, the website, or the business and activities carried on via the website.

Contests, sweepstakes and promotions. Occasionally, we may run a promotion such as a sweepstakes or a contest (a "Promotion"), and you will be given the opportunity to enter by filling out an entry form, or in some cases, you may be automatically entered by using a designated type of credit card when placing an order in store, online or via phone. Your entry information may be shared with third parties for the limited purposes of administering the sweepstakes and selecting a winner(s) and may be used to notify you in connection with the sweepstakes or contest and to verify your identity. Some Promotions may have one or more co-sponsors, and you may also be asked upon entry to consent to receive future communications from such co-sponsors. In the event your consent is indicated, the information from your entry will be shared with the co-sponsors. IN THOSE SITUATIONS, THE THIRD PARTIES WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO USE YOUR INFORMATION FOR THEIR OWN PURPOSES, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THEIR OWN POLICIES, AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR HOW CO-SPONSORS MAY USE YOUR INFORMATION. In all events, we will make it clear to you in the entry, order or registration form, before you submit it, whether you are consenting to receive information from any third party, and you will be given the opportunity to opt not to receive such information at the time you submit your entry, order or registration.

Security of your information

We take reasonable and appropriate measures to help keep information secure and to help prevent it from becoming disclosed. Even though we follow reasonable procedures to try to protect the information in our possession, no security system is perfect so we cannot promise, and you should not expect, that your information will be secure in all circumstances.

Editing your Personal Information

Once you have provided Personal Information to us, we may store and maintain that information. You may review and edit certain information online by logging into your account and accessing the "My Profile" or "My Account" page, where you will be able to edit your information. Additionally, you may contact us using the contact information below and we will edit or delete your information except as prohibited by law.

Information Shared with Textbooks.com by Educational Institutions

In some circumstance Textbooks.com has agreed to provide services to educational institutions including, among other services, making available books and other course materials to those educational institutions' students. In such circumstances, the educational institution may provide Textbooks.com with information about you (for example, your student e-mail address) so that we may send you news and information about our company, products, or services. The information provided by an educational institution is not covered by the terms of this Privacy Policy and is instead governed by the terms of the agreement between Textbooks.com and the educational institution.

Collection of information from children

We do not provide products and services to children. We do not knowingly collect or solicit information from children under the age of 13.

International users

Your Personal Information will be stored and processed on our computers in the United States of America. The laws on holding Personal Information in the United States of America may vary and be less stringent than laws of your state or country. If you object to your Personal Information being transferred or used in this manner, please do not register with or use the website.

Do not track signals

Some web browsers and devices allow you to broadcast a preference that your activities online not be "tracked". At this time, our Website does not take action in response to "do not track" signals.

Without limitation of the foregoing, you may not settle, compromise or in any other manner dispose of any Claim without our express written consent. This defense and indemnification obligation is intended to extend to the fullest extent permitted by law and will survive these TOS and your use of the Site.

MISCELLANEOUS.

Termination; Survival.
These TOS are effective unless and until terminated by you or us. Textbooks.com may, in its sole and absolute discretion and without any liability, modify, suspend or discontinue any aspect of the Site, temporarily or permanently, at any time and without prior notice. We may deny you access to all or part of the Site at any time for any reason (including, but not limited to, if you engage in any conduct or activities that we determine, in our sole and absolute discretion, violate these TOS, our rights or the rights of any third party) or no reason at all. If we terminate your account for no reason, we will fulfill our obligations to you related to any order outstanding at the time of termination. The following provisions will survive termination: 2.2, 3.2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. For purposes of clarity, the survival of provision 3.2 (Prohibited Use) means that even if your account is terminated, if you breached one or more of those provisions while using the Site, we have the right to bring a lawsuit against you for damages or injunctive relief. If we terminate your use of the Site, you must cease all use of the Site, and these TOS will terminate. Upon termination of these TOS, all rights you have to use and display the Content will immediately terminate.

Force Majeure.
Under no circumstances shall Textbooks.com or its licensors be held liable for any delay or failure in performance resulting directly or indirectly from an event beyond Textbooks.com's reasonable control.

Textbooks.com's Relationship with Educational Institutions.
ON OCCASION, WE ENTER INTO AGREEMENTS WITH EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS. UNDER SUCH AGREEMENTS, TEXTBOOKS.COM MAY PROVIDE SERVICES AND OTHER CONSIDERATION TO THE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROVIDING STUDENTS OF THE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION THE OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE AND/OR RENT BOOKS AND OTHER COURSE MATERIALS FROM TEXTBOOKS.COM AND ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS, PROVIDING THE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION A COMMISSION, OR OTHER FINANCIAL REMUNERATION, BASED UPON SALES OR RENTALS MADE TO THE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION'S STUDENTS.

Disputes; Governing Law; Arbitration.
Subject to applicable law, you and Textbooks.com agree that any dispute that has arisen or may arise between us relating in any way to your use of or access to the Services or Site, any breach, enforcement, or termination of these TOS or the Privacy Policy, or otherwise relating to Textbooks.com in any way (collectively, "Covered Matters") will be resolved in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 4.

If you have any dispute with us, you agree that before taking any formal action, you will contact us at [email protected], provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact information (including your username, if your dispute relates to an account) and allow sixty (60) days to pass, during which we will attempt to reach an amicable resolution of any issue.

United States federal law, and (to the extent not inconsistent with or pre-empted by federal law) the laws of the State of Missouri, USA, without regard to conflict of laws principles, will govern all Covered Matters.

These TOS and use of the Services evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce, and the United States Arbitration Act will apply in all cases and govern the interpretation and enforcement of the arbitration rules and arbitration proceedings. Any "Covered Matters" must be asserted individually in binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the AAA Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (including without limitation using desk, phone or video conference proceedings where appropriate and permitted to mitigate costs of travel). One arbitrator will conduct the arbitration. The arbitrator will not conduct any form of class or collective arbitration nor join or consolidate claims by or for individuals. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these TOS including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these TOS is void or voidable or a particular claim is subject to arbitration. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

For matters where the relief sought is over $5,000, the arbitrator's decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with applicable law, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator's award of damages must be consistent with the terms of the "Limitation of Liability" section as to the types and the amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same Textbooks.com user to the fullest extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER USERS.

There are only two exceptions to this arbitration agreement. First, if we reasonably believe that you have violated or threatened to violate our intellectual property rights or if you use the Site in violation of provision 3.2 (Prohibited Use), you agree that we would be irreparably harmed by such violation or use and that we may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any court of competent jurisdiction without first proving actual damages or posting a bond. Second, any claim, at the option of the claiming party, may be resolved in small claims court in Missouri, USA, if the claim and the parties are within the jurisdiction of the small claims court and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis.

Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules, unless otherwise stated in this agreement to arbitrate. If the value of the relief sought is $5,000 or less, at your request, Textbooks.com will reimburse you for all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration following the earlier of the arbitrator's decision or settlement. In the event the arbitrator determines the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration to be frivolous or without merit, Textbooks.com is relieved of its obligation to reimburse you for any fees associated with the arbitration.

IF YOU ARE A NEW TEXTBOOKS.COM USER, YOU CAN CHOOSE TO REJECT THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE PROVISION ("OPT-OUT") BY EMAILING US AN OPT-OUT NOTICE TO [email protected] ("OPT-OUT NOTICE") OR VIA US MAIL TO: TXTB.COM, LLC 2711 West Ash Street, Columbia, MO 65203. THE OPT-OUT NOTICE MUST BE RECEIVED NO LATER THAN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE DATE YOU ACCEPT THE TOS FOR THE FIRST TIME. IF YOU ARE NOT A NEW TEXTBOOKS.COM USER, YOU HAVE UNTIL THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE POSTING OF THE NEW TOS TO SUBMIT AN ARBITRATION OPT-OUT NOTICE.

In order to opt-out, your Opt-Out Notice must include your name, address (including street address, city, state, and zip code), and email address(es) associated with your account(s) to which the opt-out applies and an unaltered digital image of a valid driver's license which matches the name on your account to: [email protected]. This procedure is the only way you can opt out of the agreement to arbitrate. If you opt out of the agreement to arbitrate, all other parts of the TOS and this Section 4 (Disputes; Governing Law; Arbitration) will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this agreement to arbitrate has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with us.

BY AGREEING TO THESE TOS, YOU HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE TO A COURT TRIAL (OTHER THAN SMALL CLAIMS COURT) OR TO SERVE AS A REPRESENTATIVE, AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF A CLASS OF CLAIMANTS, IN ANY LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING FILED AGAINST US AND/OR RELATED THIRD PARTIES.

No Waiver; Severability; Time for Claims.
No waiver of any term of these TOS will be binding unless in writing, no waiver of any term of these TOS shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and the failure of Textbooks.com to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these TOS does not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. The provisions of these TOS are intended to extend to the fullest extent permitted by law. If for any reason an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these TOS to be invalid, the parties agree that the court should endeavor to give effect, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these TOS remain in full force and effect.

REGARDLESS OF ANY STATUTE OR LAW TO THE CONTRARY, ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO USE OF THE SITE, SERVICES, OR THE TOS MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISES OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED.

Entire Agreement; Assignment; Independent Contractors.
These TOS (and all terms and conditions incorporated herein) constitute the entire agreement between you and Textbooks.com and govern your use of the Site and any Services provided by Textbooks.com, superseding any prior agreements between you and Textbooks.com on the subject matter (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the TOS). You also may be subject to additional terms that may apply when you use certain Textbooks.com services or third-party software, content, links or websites. These TOS, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by Textbooks.com without restriction. These TOS bind and inure to the benefit of each party and the party's successors and permitted assigns. A party's failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege under these TOS will not waive its rights to exercise such right, power, or privilege in the future, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege, or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege under these TOS. These TOS may not be modified by an oral statement by a representative of Textbooks.com. We are independent contractors, and no agency, partnership, joint venture or employee-employer relationship is intended or created by these TOS. These TOS incorporate and apply to the Privacy Policy. You agree that any agreements made by and between you and us in electronic form are as legally binding as if made in physical written form. You agree to comply with all applicable laws in your use of the Site and Services. If you are using the Site or Services for or on behalf of the U.S. or any other government, your license rights do not exceed those granted to non-government consumers.
